Decrypt Media Covers GiveBitcoin: The Ultimate Holiday Gift

Nicholas Marinoff of Decrypt Media interviewed GiveBitcoin founder Cory Klippsten as the 2019 holiday season is moving into full swing on the ultimate holiday gift of Bitcoin.

The crypto market might be filled with anxiety at the moment over the rapidly declining price of Bitcoin and massive selloffs, but there’s at least one new startup in cryptoland that wants to help you give those bitcoins away—just in time for the holidays.

GiveBitcoin.io, which just launched last Thursday, aims to enable people to give the gift of Bitcoin to friends and family on holidays, birthdays and special occasions. The company boasts an impressive list of investors and advisors, including Dr. Saifedean Ammous, economist and author of The Bitcoin Standard; Bitcoin entrepreneur Matt Odell; Coinshares CSO Meltem Demirors; and Funstrat cofounder the aforementioned Tom Lee.

The goal, according to the company, is to create 21 million new “bitcoiners” (get it?) and achieve that thing that bitcoiners continually chase: “mainstream adoption.”

GiveBitcoin makes it easy for you to buy Bitcoin for others, knowing that GiveBitcoin will help them understand it. Give them their first taste of Bitcoin, timelock it so they can’t spend it right away, and educate them on why it’s the best form of money we’ve ever had so they “hodl” for the long term.
